Abstract:
This is the third and final paper (Yamada et al., 1993ApJS...89...57Y 1993ApJS...89...57Y
and Takata et al., Cat. J/A+AS/104/529) of our systematic visual
search for IRAS galaxies behind the Milky Way at |b|≤15°. This
paper presents a catalog of 950 IRAS galaxies with 60µm flux
densities larger than 0.6Jy located between l=0° and 150°, of
which 293 are newly identified by this search. We made a redshift
survey for the identified galaxies and obtained new redshift data of
171 galaxies. We also present newly measured redshifts of 27 IRAS
galaxies between l=150° and 225° at |b|≤15°. In this
paper we studied the structure of the Local void using IRAS galaxies
and galaxies from the Third Reference Catalogue of Bright Galaxies
(Cat. VII/155) in the region l=30°-120° and b=-50° to
+30°. The center of the Local void turned out to be located at
l∼60°, b~-15°, and cz∼2500km/s, and the size is about 2500km/s
along the direction toward the center.
